Call for submissions for an anthology of UK Disability Poetry

This is a highly exciting opportunity for anyone who defines themselves as having a disability (whether invisible or visible). I can vouch for both the publisher and editors, who are excellent, and can't wait to see the outcome of this project....

{

We want to represent the poetry of visible and invisible long-term and life-altering physical disability or mobility impairments, deafness, blindness, learning difficulties, cognitive impairments, chronic and terminal illness (ME/CFS/EDS/Fibromyalgia/MS/cancer etc.), stammers and stutters, mental health issues – and any other non-normative bodily alignments which have a place under the banner of “disabled” according to the social model.
We especially welcome work from writers who also identify as people of colour, minority ethnic, indigenous, racialised, migrant, queer, bisexual, lesbian, gay, asexual, genderqueer, gender variant, gender non-binary, trans, intersex, women, agender, working class, working poor and/or any related identities.
